Body shell with bumpers, Looking for a guide/advice


Rav

Recommended Posts

Hi guys. After a long break away from RC my 12yo son has gotten into Drifting.

 

I bought a Golf Mk1 body shell for my 1/10th RC drift car and it came with light buckets and bumpers. I know what to do with the light buckets but I'm looking for a little bit of guidance with the bumpers. I've seen a few videos on Youtube of people doing it but they were time lapse videos and didn't explain what or why he was doing it.

 

Can anyone point me to a guide of some sort please?

Yea my mistake sorry guys. I was getting confused. I thought I had to cut parts of the shell off then stick the bumpers to the inside of the shell like a Pandora shell.

 

Didn't want to take a knife to my new £30 shell and ruin it is all.

 

All sorted now cheers guys.
